Translation of "Capataces" in English

Los capataces los apremiaban, diciendo: "Terminad la tarea impuesta para cada día, como cuando se os proveía de paja."

And the overseers of the works pressed them, saying: Fulfil your work every day, as before ye were wont to do, when straw was given you.

Entonces, les impusieron capataces para oprimirlos con duros trabajos; y así edificaron para el faraón las ciudades de depósito: Pitom y Ramsés.

Therefore he set over them masters of the works, to afflict them with burdens: and they built for Pharaoh cities of tabernacles, Phithom, and Ramesses.

Aquel día el faraón ordenó a los capataces y a los inspectores: "No proveáis, como hasta ahora, de paja al pueblo para hacer ladrillos; que vayan ellos mismos a recogerla."

Therefore he commanded the same day the overseers of the works, and the task-masters of the people, saying: You shall give straw no more to the people to make brick, as before; but let them go and gather straw.

Y castigaron también a los inspectores israelitas, que habían sido nombrados por los capataces del faraón, diciendo: "¿Por qué no habéis hecho, ni ayer ni hoy, la misma cantidad de ladrillos que antes?"

And they that were over the works of the children of Israel, were scourged by Pharaoh's taskmasters, saying: Why have you not made up the task of bricks, both yesterday and today, as before?

Salieron los capataces y los inspectores y dijeron al pueblo: "Así dice el faraón: No os daré ya más paja; id vosotros mismos a recogerla donde podáis; pero no disminuirá en nada vuestra tarea."

And the overseers of the works, and the taskmasters, went out and said to the people: Thus saith Pharaoh: I allow you no straw; go, and gather it where you can find it; neither shall any thing of your work be diminished.
